Myths about solar eclipse

-

A solar eclipse takes place when the moon comes in between the Sun and the earth, blocking the Sun's rays from reaching the earth. The solar eclipse taking place will be an annular solar eclipse as the moon will only cover the centre of Sun, leaving it's outer edges visible, forming a "ring of fire". An annular eclipse occurs when the moon is too far away from the earth to completely hide the Sun.

The eclipse will be annular only in some parts of the country, where people will be able to witness the ring of fire, while in the rest of the country it will be partial. It will start at 9:15 am and last till 3:04 pm(IST). Solar eclipse is although a natural phenomenon, but it is believed that it can have some negative effects on human health. Here are 5 ways solar eclipse is believed to affect your health.

●Pregnancy - Eclipse are not considered good for pregnant woman. As per some mythological theories, pregnant women should not step out of their house during theeclipse as it may be harmful to her and her baby. It is said that women who goes out from house at this time can face difficulties during the delivery or their children can born with abnormalities.

●Eye problem - Watching solar eclipse directlywith the naked eyes can damage your retina and in the worst case, it can even lead to blindness. If you want to view the solar eclipse then use special solar glasses for it. Many people use sunglasses or photographic negatives, but these things are not effective at all.

●Digestive issue - Some people believe that eclipse can even disrupt your digestive system. For the same reason, people avoid eating or drinking anything till the solar eclipse is not over.

●Mood change - This astronomical event is said to also have a negative impact on your mood. You may feel irritated or sad for no particular reason.

●Can make you feel lethargic - As per some beliefs, the eclipse can make you feel tired and lethargic. Even though you had a sound sleep at night, you may feel fatigued. It is advised to avoid making any kind of big decision as you may not reap any benefit from it.

Remember, not all of these beliefs are true. They are mere theories, without any scientific backing. The only thing which is true is that you must not see the eclipse with your naked eyes.
